SPENCER - A Roane County man was arrested Friday after allegedly firing a gun multiple times at Door Dash drivers who had taken a wrong turn.
According to a release from the West Virginia State Police, a trooper responded Sept. 28 to a shots fired call on Arnoldsburg Road in Spencer.
Michelle and William Lowe, of Spencer, told the trooper they were delivering an order for Door Dash when their GPS took them the wrong day down a long driveway. While they were sitting in their car trying to find the correct directions, a man fired multiple shots from a gun at them, one of which struck their vehicle, the release said.
The man, later identified as Larry Epling, 65, of Spencer, was arrested around 4 p.m. Friday and charged with six counts of wanton endangerment, two counts of assault and two counts of prohibited person in possession of a firearm, the release said.
Following his arraignment in Roane County Magistrate Court, he was released on a $25,000 surety bond.
